Can they be used to melt candy in the microwave for molding?

Yes. Use 50% power or the defrost setting. Start at 45 seconds, take them out and "squish" the bag. Adjust your time accordingly. If your melts are a little thick, add a little solid vegetable shortening to thin it.

I wouldn't microwave them, just to be overly safe because they are plastic. But they are small and would defrost quickly in a bowl of hot water.

Yes, they are safe for use in the freezer, microwave, and dishwasher. You can check out their website for more information at sistemaplastics.

No. The polyethylene plastic of which they are made is not suitable for use in a microwave oven.

You cannot use then in an oven. They have plastic domes and I am rather certain that they will melt.

Yes! I used it with candy melts and was able to do a lovely job the very first time I used this mold!!!

I am not sure - it is plastic so I am guessing not if your mixture is really not. The plastic is not really super thin, but making hard candy, like anise, etc. would just melt it, I'm sure

Don't see why you couldn't, I'm merely saying that they were originally designed for candy mixes. There are a bunch of stevia flavoring extracts you can buy that will provide 80-120 uses. These small drams will probably proved 25-35 uses.

Not yet. I don't use them for soldering. They are to hold plastic parts for building model kits for my railroading hobby. In looking at them, they look to be made of nylon base material. Not sure the melting point of nylon, but I would guess a solding gun or pencil could melt them.

No. They cannot be put in a microwave oven. The coated rims would overheat.

We used them for ice cream. They're thin - I wouldn't try them for anything hot as it would probably melt the plastic.

I use them in my microwave all the time, but just for reheating, never over a couple of minutes. Never had any issues with melting.

I've never tried them in them in the microwave. I would imagine they'd be fine though.

Good question. I wouldn't use them in the microwave as I don't with any plastics. So, my vote is no.

This is the mold. You can melt candy melts and pour them into the mold to get colors or you can temper chocolate and use.

I'm not really sure but I have one and we used them in school all the time. They can be used in the oven as well and they don't melt. I've used them for chocolates. They clean very well.

Absolutely! I use mine every week in the oven or microwave. The first time you use them, you need to spray them with a cooking spray. Since I use them so often, I don't spray them with cooking spray anymore. The baked product comes easily out of the silicon cup. This is true whether in oven or microwave.I have even used them for a molded baked custards and individual molded jello desserts.
